I really like the face and Rear, but it looks kinda bland in profile, IMO.

Oh good lord no. Looks like they took the worst of a 1st gen Subaru Tribeca and a Hyundai Tuscon and blended them together with the ugliest shit colour they could find.
barf
It's like an uglier Cayenne with an Alfa front.
Alfa's styling language doesn't translate well to an SUV.
The very idea hurts my head.

Where's the puke smiley?
Looks fake to me though. Maybe this is wishful thinking. But the rear lights look like they were from a 147 and that's actually not Alfa's current design language anymore. The profile? :cry: Could be from a Hyundai SUV. And the front is a mixture of Alfa styling elements and Fiat Punto lights.
I'm surprised that this has reappeared. The Kamal goes back several years, and was indeed 147 based. I believe it was cancelled about 4 years ago. As Till says, this is no longer the current Alfa styling, so if such a vehicle is in plan again now (dubious, but not impossible), I suspect it would not look like this.

I must have missed that. To me, that's good news! :lol:
I sort of read the Italian text that went with the pics......... it says that although Alfa keeps "flirting" with the idea of an SUV, this one dates from 2003 and is a glimpse of what might have been, not what is coming.......
Probably a Good Thing!
This looks like the bastard love child of a Porsche Cayenne and a first generation Hyundai Santa Fe. It might have looked fresh in 2003 but it appears very dated now.
